Hi Rik , you done a cracking job on my recipe, I will add a bit of herbs to mine next time, I told you it was GOOD hahaha . thank you so much for doing it and showing others how its done.
@@davidhuggan6315 it’s also great for the cold summer nights here in Norway 🤣 I think we have 15 degrees today, but I’ll cool down tonight… 😅 Just had a week where we reached 26.. that’s very hot over here🤭
Looks utterly delicious, will definitely be trying this recipe out, but will be wearing nice comfy jogging bottoms with an elasticated waistband whilst savouring every forkful!😆 Thanks to Allen for sending in the basic recipe & Chef Rik for adding his additional culinary flair to proceedings! Yummm - cheesy sensation!👨🍳👌😍😋💖🥓🧀
Interpretation and the practical opportunity of available supplies and preferred seasonings is the essence a great result. I enjoy adding to my mental collection of starting point recipes and sauce techniques. Canada has a significant dairy industry so easy access to quality milk and cheese products. No shortage of bacon and potatoes and onions in my region. Today is Canada Day thus my emphasis is on preparing meals honouring Canadian farmers, growers and small food producers.
Dang, thats making my mouth water! Looks fantastic. Just want to make one point. The "white sauce" you made, before adding the cheese, is what we call milk gravy. We use it, made just like that, over biscuits. (Which i believe are similar to your scones.) Biscuits and gravy! Here in the southern United States it ain't breakfast without it. Throw in meat of your choice and a couple over-medium fried eggs, and you have the breakfast of the gods!
I do this at Christmas with leftover gammon just add spring onions and some mushrooms. Real comfort food after the over indulgent festivities. It's a winner! Thanks Rik
When I was in the French restraunt we used to do our potatoes cubed and fried similar to what you've done here, ( should mention here that the potatoes were boiled first in salted water for about 5 minutes ) but then dried and were fried in garlic and served as a silver service side with cooked green beans served the same way. Delicious!
Yeah… I’m having this tomorrow!! I have Smokey bacon in the freezer. I bought potatoes last week, first time since before Christmas 😂 The other things I always have in hand . This looks perfect!! Thanks to both of you for another good one😊
Well this isn’t very keto friendly, but just about the best comfort food you are likely to find anywhere. Looks delicious Rik , I’m definitely going to make it on a treat day. Thank you to Allen for sharing xx
That's like our has browns or cottage fries and who would have ever thought of adding bacon and enveloping it all in a super cheesey sauce?! Wow, Chef!! Absolutely amazing. A meal in itself.. or with a veggie side, or a steak, or some Brats, or BBQ chicken. Just Wow! Love the ideas of tossing in mushrooms to the mix too. Would have to half the recipe for just two... or.. I wonder how well it would freeze?? Shirley in NH
@@BackyardChef Woo-Hoo!!! Thank you, Rik! My husband got so excited when he saw this recipe... a sure sign he wants me to make it. lol This will feed us for one meal and 4 more servings in the freezer!! Shirley in NH
Rik, I watch you everyday that you make a video and every time I watch you that's when I want to eat. That's how great of a shift you are. This looks amazing! Yum yum!!!!!
Yum. As sson as I get the oven floor cleaned off (oh what a beautiful morning I had in the kitchen) I'll think about making your latest. Cheers as always and thanks!
Hi Rik. Exactly the sort of recipe for a family midweek supper. Filling and nourishing. I miss haviing all my girls at home because this is the sort of meal we would have after a hard day at school / college / hospital . Thanks for firing up my enthusiasm again and for reminding everyone it's ok to adjust a recipe to suit.
Ohhhhh myyyyy, just pure comfort food. My only change is I scrub but do not peel thin skinned yellow or red potatoes. Wether mashed, baked or roasted. We love the skins. Plus, the added fiber helps us to feel more righteous and ignore the calorie count of bacon and cheese.😊 Deliciouuuuus!
That looks like my kind of meal,with some broccoli.I am going to make that.I made many hundreds of pots of white sauce,and always did it the same as you,never understood the pouring in of drips,and draps of milk.😊
For goodness sake, Rik! It's half past midnight here in the UK and watching this video has made me so hungry. I must stop watching your channel at the witching hour, but thank you for this recipe, I'll make it when I get up, it looks too delicious to miss.
Ey-up Rik, think I’ll have a go at this one, but because I have it in my fridge I’m going to add some chorizo sausage and save some of the bacon for a sandwich for breakfast. Cheers mate!
Hello Rick. Why don’t you ask your viewers from all over the world to send you one of their local recipe and you just cook it! Could be an international side of your show. I got some in mind that my mom cooked from Quebec.
That's a great Idea. HOWEVER, there are many moaners on here nit picking the recipes now from around the world. Saying its not how they are made - even though I research every recipe. Thank you. Best, Rik
Tell em to do one no recipe is set in stone Rik we all add what we like and each family does things their way ,can’t understand why they have to moan just bloody do it your own way as you say on every recipe. I love watching you keep on you’re phenomenal ❤❤
Back in my military days, we had something to say about the moaners/troublemakers: "Just because someone soils their pants, shouldn't mean the rest of us need to wear diapers!" Pay no mind to the moaners. The rest of us absolutely adore the recipes you demonstrate! Keep it up, your doing a fine job.
uh uh uh Ohhhhhh...Yeaaaaaaaa. Good job Allen from Wales and good job Rik from Yorkshire. Hot roux/cold liquid = no lumps, just dump it in, good tip Rik. Clog my arteries and give me a heart attack...I'll be making this :) Thank you from Wes of Minnesota :)
Wow Allen that was a great recipe cooked by the best chef ever lol. Thanks for sending it into Rik who did an amazing job, with it. I think that is the top of comfort food in my book. Lol I love potatoes love cheese. Love onions and love bacon. It’s winter here in 🇦🇺 So will definitely be giving that a go. I fancy it with a nice Greek salad to break some of the fat lol. Thanks as always take care
Just came across this receipe. My spouse is going to have delicious surprise when he returns from shopping. I enjoy making cheese sauces. Often add Worchestshire sauce with powered English mustard. Nice 3 cheese mix. Thanks for all the wonderful meat recipes. Would like few more veggie only ones and fish. Although with fish is best cooked quick and served with extras on side. Made lemon curd using your method. Great and easier to do. Added a blob on side to plaice fillets interesting flavour. Thank you.
Here in the U.S. this would almost be a hash brown casserole. I’m so glad to see you add the milk all at once. I see cooks say add the milk a little at a time to prevent lumps! Pooh! I always add my milk like you do and I’ve never had any lumps. The trick is in the whisking!
Wow, Rik! That looks Ab Fab! Kudos to you and Allen Brown for such a yummy recipe! I'm going to try this once the weather turns cold (November here in Maryland). Thank so much, both of you!
Hi Rik ... I've been following you for a month or two and have already tried your Rumbledethumps and your Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Filo Pie ... this is definitely next ... not only are your recipes fantastic but I love your relaxed presenting style and your "Don't worry" attitude ... well done and thank you.
This sounds and looks delicious. Thanks to Allen for sharing with you and you for sharing with us. I am the type who needs measurements so was glad to see some indication on this one of how much of each. I will definitely try this one.
I cook this dish occasionally, sometimes with bacon or some leftover smoked ham (cubed). A nice touch is to sprinkle breadcrumbs on top of the last layer of cheese before baking. Everyone loves this satisfying comfort dish, even the fussy, picky eaters. If you substitute partially cooked macaroni for the potatoes, you will have a tasty deluxe mac & cheese dish too. Served on its own with a salad or cooked broccoli to counter the effects of a cheese-heavy dish for some people (bungs them up). Goes also nicely with a boiled or fried sausage or a cutlet. Enjoy!
You know I had the breadcrumbs out - was going to add melted butter and put them on - decided against it - thought it was taking it too far. Thank you. Best, Rik
Great recipe for a family meal, cook up a few sausages and a green veg or salad yum yum. Should keep the kids quiet for a while 😂❤ thanks Rik and Alan 😊x
This was killing me to watch! It looks so delicious! A very satisfying casserole. I think making the casserole up in advance the night before and then just baking it off the next day would work really well too. I can’t wait to make this!
That is the absolute bomb for the taste buds and palette. Can just imagine the feel and taste being masticated on the palette. However, I would substitute potatoes for sweet potatoes, flour for himilayan tartary buckwheat flour, and grass fed bacon and sausages with a mixture of Italian herbs.. All ingredients would be organic of course and would be a now and again treat to the carnivore diet that I’m soon the start after my three weeks fast. On the 10th day at the moment. This recipe is everyone’s palette dream. Perhaps with a little fermented mixed vegetables.😊
I’ve been told that an air fryer is just a small fan oven. I don’t know if you agree, Rik, but if it is, it may give people who haven’t got an air fryer a bit of confidence to know that.
I would add a coupla layers of thick-sliced cooking apples (Bramleys, Jonathans) to cut the grease. Serve with a mix of boiled parsnips and carrots, or carrot/parsnip soup..
Hi Rik , you done a cracking job on my recipe, I will add a bit of herbs to mine next time, I told you it was GOOD hahaha . thank you so much for doing it and showing others how its done.
No worries, mate. An easy one to meddle with. Thank you. Best, Rik
Thanks Allen for sharing your recipe for Rik to tweak, it looks fantastic!😋👌👍
awesome job!!! looks incredible. It's a huge hit!!!! :)
Fantastic
This recipe looks amazing! I think I will make it as side dish for our 4th of July cookout! Thanks for sharing!
I’m American, and this recipe could be our National standard for casseroles! Lol Cheese, bacon and potatoes, you don’t get better than that.❤️🤗🐝
Thanks for sharing. Thank you. Best, Rik

The American Dairy Council should send you an award as I am sure your recipes are affecting dairy product sales over here, lol.

Made lemon curd using your method. Great and easier to do. Added a blob on side to plaice fillets interesting flavour. Thank you.
